Not sure about this question. I think there is no correct answer given, because even the link provided for SQL 2014 says "Topic Status: Some information in this topic is pre-release and subject to change in future releases"

Since SQL 2014 is not released yet, you can't be sure what will be in it or not. So I would have chosen "None of the above"

No, Markus, Dave62 is right!Look at this document:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143729(v=sql.120).aspx

There also it is stated that this feature still exists and will be refused in future times. Just look for the key word "XP_API".

Or did I misunderstand you? You think that because it is pre-release it might change until the official release of SQL Server 2014? Then of course forget my remark above. I myself fought with this detail and decided to ignore it

Best regards

Edit: detail etc.

Good question. I had to research it as well, but never found anything conclusive either way. It came down to a guess between the last 2 and I got it right. I was leaning that way because I had a hard time seeing MS remove something that's so core to SQL Server as a type of OS within the actual OS. Granted, they've done it before.
